Suits (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Posted Image

Finished first season. It reminds me of two shows... First Collar on how it is presented. Mad Men because the character of Harvey Specter is so freaking similar to Don Draper.

The problem is that Specter is like 5% of what Draper is. It just does not feel solid enough. When Draper talks, you listen. When Specter talks, you hope that he would say something that would impress you. Sadly, it does not happen very often.

HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3545 AIO Printer

Check HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3545 AIO Printer Deals on: Flipkart | Amazon

---

My aging HP Photosmart 8158 printer finally gave up yesterday and sister needs printer frequently now a days.  I already had HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3545 AIO Printer in mind.  Finally bought it today for 6k from a known vendor who supplies computer products to our company.  This printer retails at 6.7k on Flipkart, so this was an excellent deal.  Some features mentioned below.
  • Wireless connectivity.
  • HP Ink Advantage cartridges (HP 678 Black and Color)
  • HP ePrint support.
  • Apple Airprint support.
  • HP Wireless Direct support.
  • Automatic print on both sides support.
  • Scan through web portal.
Took a couple of prints and all were good enough.  The automatic print on both sides amazed me as I have seen this only on high end laser printers.  Scanned some old photos and it looks great too.  Printouts fired from my mobile/tablet works fine using the native print support in android 4.4 but the print comes comparatively slower which is probably because it prints on 'Normal' or 'Best' mode and in mobile I couldn't find an option to toggle this.
 
Overall a pretty solid printer for the price.

Transformers: Age of Extinction

Posted: 01 Mar 2014 10:38 AM PST

Since late last year, rumors began firing off about a potential "Transformers" sequel or sequels, and they ran the gamut. Paramount might film two sequels back to back. Michael Bay might return for both. Jason Statham may be the new star. Rumors came and went, but perhaps the biggest question lingered: Will Bay return to direct?

The highest download speed you ever reached

Posted: 01 Mar 2014 10:27 AM PST

 Once at a friend's place (hostel) there was an unsecured wifi network, and I downloaded at almost 1MBps. I would often go to his place to download. But, after 1-2 months the network became secured and so it was the end of delight. So, anyways what is the highest download speed you have ever got?

Excuse me while I go and puke.
Question is whether this would be a laptop or a tablet. A Chrome OS based tablet has been rumored for a long time though it makes very little sense.
And a laptop with a faux leather body casing would probably be a very bad idea.

High Ping ,Stutter in MTNLS 2mbps plan

Posted: 01 Mar 2014 10:06 AM PST

Initial problem- As the title suggest since about last 30 days or so my ping has been too high for adsl2,adsl2+ modulation for the 2mbps plan
Also I disconnect every hour or so on ADSL2/2+,Auto sync modulation(inet light goes off for few seconds and i get disconnected ,inet light comes back on after 10 seconds or so)

temporary solution - gdmt modulation works fine but it is not a feasible option as it works really slow for some of the online games on ps3(so slow that frame rate drops on tv horribly better not to play at all).ADSL2+ is more advanced and transfers bins lot quicker.

-Have checked with 2 routers and got the same results.same ping time,stutter on both router hence i concluded that the problem is from the server side

I have posted below the approximate values for adsl2 + gdmt tested with wired connection on pingtest.com to the same server
(speed is ok and stable around 175 kb/ps for all type of modulations)

adsl2+(wired)
ping : 60
jitter : 1
SNR : 33
Line attenuation : 30

adsl2 (wired)
ping : 60
jitter:1
SNR:37
Line attenuation : 30

GDMT (wired)
Ping : 13
jitter :1
SNR : 17.5
line attenuation : 45
{I think crc error is bit high(goes upto250 for downstream) for GDMT whereas power DB is high for adsl2,adsl2+}


What I would like to know - could switching to a lower plan like a 1mbps plan solve my issue?or is there any other fix to this soultion? (never had a issue like this since I have been online gaming on 360,ps3 since 4 years)

thanks

ps : sorry for bad grammar the other forum wouldn't let me post any fullstops,commas as it would read them as a web-link

Why this thread?

So often, we have some random thought or point to make/discuss , and I personally sometimes skip it as I feel it is not worthy of a new thread & feel its unfair to hijack an existing thread...

Would recommend creating new thread for any big news & as usual we have threads for specific series/tournaments.. This is for something general random posts related to cricket...Kind of the Cricket Offtopic thread...

Will start with one post

BSNL to hike landline, broadband rentals

Posted: 01 Mar 2014 08:04 AM PST

India's largest state-owned telecommunications service provider Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited has decided to increase the landline and broadband monthly tariff from March 1 across the country.
 
"One India monthly plan for landline will be revised from Rs 180 to Rs 195," BSNL CGM (Kolkata) Gautam Chakraborty told PTI.
The fixed monthly charge for limited usage broadband plans has similarly been increased. The revision is between Rs 24 and Rs 350 depending on the scheme, he added.
 
The Rs 250 plan will now cost Rs 275, Rs 600 plan will get revised to Rs 630 while, the Rs 400 plan will cost Rs 424, Rs 2,799 and Rs 3,699 plans will be dearer by Rs 200 a month, he said. The Rs 4,999 and 6,999 plans will get hiked by Rs 250 and Rs 350 a month, he added.

BSNL - EVDO - Usage - Review and everything about it

Posted: 01 Mar 2014 07:46 AM PST

BSNL - EVDO - Usage - Review and everything about it

I know its a old school connection , about 4 years old but till now there isnt a better wireless plan compared to this till now

Rs 750 Pm True Unlimited . Prepaid

Pros:
1. True Unlimited no FUPs - i download around 100-150 Gbs a month, i can download upto 200-300 Gbs but i run out of files :redface:
2. Priced cheap compared to others , when they charge Rs 1000 with 10 Gb FUP
3. U dont have to talk to the customer care ever

Cons:
1. it has too many
2. Coverage is too thin , forget about slow speed there are places where u wont get any service at all
3. u just cannot walk to a BSNL office and buy this sim , because 70% of them doesnt know there is a service like this
4. CDMA
5. Availability of CDMA- EVDO modems in the market
6. Recharge Problems , those STVs mentioned on the site dont work most of the time ( lost Rs 1000 over online Recharge couple of times)

even after all the above i just love this connection , its prepaid and costs 750 pm , unlimited
have nice coverage in my town , so always get 1-2mbps , but dont ask about the ping or latency values :mad:

with this connection i have never thought about another connection for 3 years now .

have some doubts ? want details ? ask it here

happy to help

qsuHG.jpg

fZvme.jpg

Max speed , remind u that my device supports upto 3.1mbps only

Recharge:

 

recharge for Rs 20 for 6 months validity , make with a retailer if he says this amount is not available insist that it works

topup for any amount you like , every 30 days the rental would get deducted automatically

"Existing 3G plans will apply to users who will be migrated to 4G for no extra cost. However, they will have to get a SIM card replacement. Voice networks will continue to run on 2G and 3G networks," said Srini Gopalan, Bharti Airtel's director for consumer business. "4G network users will be able to download 10 standard movies within 30 minutes," he claimed. A trial version of 4G-LTE network that ET experienced in Bangalore was gave download speed of about 7.2 MBPS, versus a 2.2 MBPS in a 3G network.

Beetel 450 TC1 - Reliance Thunder 699

Posted: 01 Mar 2014 02:20 AM PST

Hey guys ! This is the first time I am posting in here and in vain.I had been using Airtel broadband 3-4 months back and recently I had opted for Reliance broadband with the thunder 699 plan. Though I am pretty much satisfied with the speed, but usual disconnection happen saying " Local Area Connection doesn't have a valid IP Configuration ". This doesn't bother me much, my main problem is that i cannot acces my router settings i followed the procedure 

Start > CMD > ipconfig > Default gateway IP , used the IP to try to access router setting in Google Chrome, Mozilla and Internet Explorer but none can connect me to it, my default gateway starts like 123.236.x.x . Note sure if it should start with 123 usually its 192 isnt it ?

 

Even when i used the modem provided by Reliance "ZTE ZXDSL 831 Series " i couldn't access the router settings , I did a Hard reset on my beetel modem too. The beetel router got configured when i connected modem to the router using 2 lan cables i guess ?, I am able to ping my default gateway through cmd and i use direct ethernet cable into my laptop which is a windows 7 64-bit.

 

Well i should be able to access my router settings right or is it blocked by reliance ?
